[PATCH] Use SSH key from `GIT_SSH_KEY` variable if supplied

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Using a different SSH key for various SSH commands seems to be a
recurring theme. Allow user to supply path to the SSH key he wants to
use for operations that require it without need to use `GIT_SSH`
variable and a wrapper script.
